Description
Ares L85A2 Bolt Release | Part No.: C28 and C29
This is a genuine Ares replacement bolt release for the Ares L85A2, covering Ares part numbers C28 and C29. It is intended for players who need to replace a worn, damaged or lost bolt release and keep their rifle looking and working as it should.
Ares makes one of the best-known electric replicas of the British Army’s L85 rifle, and using the factory part means the fit and finish match the rest of your rifle.
Why replace it
External controls on an L85 take plenty of knocks in the field, especially when the rifle is rested on cover or carried through woodland. A loose, broken or missing bolt release spoils the realism of the rifle and can leave gaps for dirt to get in. Replacing it with the correct part restores the rifle’s original look.
Fitting
Fitting internal or small external parts usually means partly stripping the replica. Work on a clean, well-lit surface, keep track of small screws and springs, and take photos as you go so you can see how everything fits back together. If you are not confident, an airsoft technician can fit the part for you.
